Your Role as a Journalism Intern in Moldova
Our journalism internships in Moldova offer you worthwhile practical experience of interning in a newspaper office in the capital city of Chisinau. You will generally start off your internship by shadowing a local journalist who will show you how articles are put together. You will then spend time researching your own news stories and features and conducting interviews within the community.
Your editor will be eager to hear any ideas you may have and your internship supervisor will be on hand to help and give advice, although ideas for articles should come to you easily in such a different culture. Recent interns have interviewed local ambassadors, musicians and members of the international community.
Your articles will be translated before they go to press for the benefit of the local readership. By the end of your internship, you should have a number of published articles, which you can take home for your portfolio.
"Along with this excellent hospitality, I have found many Moldovans to be very curious about England and I have been asked many questions regarding myself and my country. I find almost everyone very keen to hear what I have to say about the UK. Everyone also seems very enthusiastic about learning English, and I have found that the standard of English is extremely high. I therefore feel guilty about knowing so little Russian, although I have recently started to learn" James Taylor - Journalism intern in Moldova
